Cool thought.
In my belief, we think of pain or suffering as a way to share the pain and suffering Jesus felt when he was crucified. So as strange as it seems, when we feel pain or suffer, we consider it a blessing because Jesus is sharing his suffering with us.

Some pain is necessary in life. God does not do for us that which we can do for ourselves. Why do you think Jesus didn't just didn't cure all sick people. Only the people that allowed him to fix them, were fixed. He didn't go aganist anyone's free will. Some people's sickness and suffering was part of their spiritual journey. To take that away would hinder their spiritual growth. If the weather was always hot all the time, how would we even know what cold even is?

Then he went on to say to all: If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake day after day and follow me continually. For whoever wants to save his soul will loose it; but whoever losses his soul for my sake is the one who will save it. Luke 9:23,24

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
